    The woollies homebrand peas are really dreadful.

    No matter how I cook them or for how long theyre hard and starchy.

    It’s so dreadful, thank god I managed to get peas from Aldi. I didn’t notice the Aldi peas being like that but I’ll find out in the next few days if I was just imagining it.

      Aldi frozen stuff is usually solid in quality. I think most of it is packed in Europe, so that might be why.

        Yeah. I normally get most of my frozen veg from Aldi now, seemed to be better in quality.

        Their frozen green beans are shit. A lot of stalks in there. They might’ve changed now. It’s been years since I bought them from there.

          I have never found good frozen green beans. It’s a veggie we always get fresh.

            I use both. Frozen beans are usually an after thought in a stir fry to balance the colours.

              Ah yes, the bulk up so the food has some colour and apparent nutrition 😜

              We do the same. If it looks too ‘meaty’, peas, carrots and corn add a bit of fibre

      Probably left a bit long before harvest?

      You could treat them like the starchy marrowfat peas. Have some mushy peas with a pie or fish and chips

        I’m almost done with the pack so I’ll be rid of them soon.

        Just had enough after 3kg of them.
